A note from the WTUN:

Our main objective at WTUN is to promote collaboration between technology universities worldwide, to collectively help solve major world challenges and educate the next generation of world leaders. In support of this objective, we like to enhance the attendance at our annual Congress, and we have, therefore, a policy of making available free attendance, covering fees at the congress including accommodation, for one representative per institution.

We would, of course, be very happy if you also wish to bring other academics and staff, to contribute and enjoy the Congress. There is no fee for WTUN members to attend the Congress however travel costs and additional delegate accommodation are at the responsibility of the member institution.
